The Appeal
The late 90s saw TVR riding on quite the high, and it's clear that the company were on a winning streak. What nobody quite expected was a watershed moment just before the new Millenia. Every TVR was no-excuses, but the Tuscan just seemed to take it all up a notch.
Distinctively styled, with a drill-hole grille and a sonorous I6, the Tuscan was unapologetic in its eccentricity, and incredibly dynamic. The idea was to bring something that little bit more exciting to a market dominated by BMW and Porsche - and it couldn't be denied that they'd succeeded.

This particular model, with its unique 'Crystal Verdi' paintwork, and duotone interior, is a standout example of the marque. The car has been meticulously maintained, and carries a reportedly accurate 25,252 miles on the clock. The bonnet conversion completed by TrackvRoad adds an extra touch of uniqueness to this already special vehicle.
